I don't really follow TBR shelf/list 1,2,3, don't want titles from some list to get synced (batch transferd) to device and I actually like to send books one by one using "Send to Device" because I do my checking of html/css , Count Pages plugin, Hyphenate etc mostly right after I add book to Calibre, but not always. And because I'm anti-"iTunes school of thinking" "transfer-and-delete-via-sync".
I have no idea if "syncing" via those list uses "Send to Device" (which generates .apnx file) and do plugboards and save templates apply in that case.
But I'll use next weekend & old Kindle PW1 & Calibre portable to mess around and try to figure out how the plugin is used. Aldo I'm used to my old (probably not very efficient ways), and use Goodreads to decide what I'll read next, to track what I've read and only occasionally sync read state from it to Calibre Library.

I haven't used it myself, but it does say specifically that you can automatically keep a per-device list of what's on your devices, and it uses the send-to-device process.
Auto-sync is one component, tracking the contents of a device is another, and each component is optional.
